Four Split Personalities

Foster Ward casually watched the Saint Heir princess duo with everyone, nodded slightly to Elisa Logan who smiled at him, while subconsciously deep in thought.

As Lian often said, he can’t stay idle. Even when doing nothing, he’d burden his brain with thoughts.

[Hehe, such cute anger! Am I being excessive? Or...has someone else’s gaze triggered it?]

Elisa, closest to Black, pinched the latter’s delicate and handsome little face and reflected for about a third of a second before continuing her habitual ’harassment’ of the young man.

"Hey, wait! Havan, how could you agree to him so easily?"

Finally, Phyllis Graham couldn’t sit still. It seemed she remembered the great effort she had to make to barely convince Motan to let her be a sponsor. Feeling the unfair treatment, the Wealth Saintess gritted her teeth and glared at the guy who nonchalantly accepted Foster’s invitation: "This isn’t like you!"

The ascetic Tom nodded gently, smiling in agreement, "In fact, I’m also curious why Hei Fan agreed to Foster so readily."

"Wang Yu just told me, you’ve already promised on my behalf."

Motan shot Tom an annoyed glance.

"That was a joke."

Tom chuckled, warm as he spoke, "Although from a union and sect perspective, I’m hoping Hei Fan you’d accept this invitation."

Contrary to the nickname ’ascetic,’ which sounds ’strict’ and ’serious,’ Tom is religious but still quite charming and talkative (after all, everyone has seen the Goddess of Dawn’s style), people’s perception deviation towards him is mainly because Tom looks quite unsightly. To maintain city appearance, he seldom shows up in public.

"Yeah, with such expectation from you, what more can I say?"

Motan shrugged, smiling wryly, "And even if I refuse, Chairman Foster probably wouldn’t give up easily, right?"

Foster blinked and said gracefully, "Yes, I’ve just prepared to use the favor from before to pressure you, Black Vatican Priest."

Hearing this joke that everyone could see through, the crowd smiled knowingly.

"Good, so we’re even now."

Motan, aware of Foster’s cunning, immediately distanced himself, clapping his hands, "After this, let’s mind our own business!"

"Kidding aside on the favor, but I’m really admiring you, Black Vatican Priest."

Foster brushed off Motan’s disowning tactic, smiling, "Even now, everyone’s impression of me is ’that Foster from the Law Enforcement Force,’ but I’m still a student at Danu Military Academy, wanting to learn a lot."

[I knew it, you must’ve planned to play a round with me if I refuse, maybe with a bet.]

Motan sneered inwardly, but outwardly he smiled dryly, "You flatter me, really, using honorifics isn’t necessary as I’m clearly younger."

"Haha, those who succeed are teachers, right?"

Foster seemed intent on steering the topic towards somewhere Motan opposed, but the latter had no good solution.

"Captain Foster, you’re joking."

Yu Chen softly chimed in and lightly poked Motan’s cheek, "He’s very lazy, doesn’t even want to play chess with me. If he really ’mentors’ you, I’d be jealous."

Motan was a bit lost like Black being held by Elisa, moreover objectively, not even as good because Black was at least dazed by a hug, whereas he was made speechless by a single sentence.

Nonetheless, Motan remained Motan, swiftly adjusting his mindset despite this (in some sense) unimpressive state, calmly, with trembling hands and widening pupils, sweating coldly towards Foster, "Okay, mentorship is off the table."

Alright then, everyone could see, this guy hadn’t really adjusted his mindset...

No worries, although Motan showed no calmness, Foster self-servingly imagined his lack of backbone as a ’fear of wife’ phenomenon, thus temporarily decided not to explore the skills of this Black Vatican Priest further, wisely nodded, stood up, "I won’t intrude further, this is a special period, both academy and law enforcement are quite busy recently, I have some errands after reporting, I’ll take my leave."

[Hurry up and roll smoothly!]

Familiar in some way with Foster, Motan howled inwardly, while hypocritically joining everyone in persuading, "Won’t stay a bit longer?"

"Not now, but near the end of the exchange event, I might be a bit freer."

Foster shook his head, smiled, "If everyone is free then, please come to the Law Enforcement Force."

Afterward, Foster chatted a bit, then returned to the academy for reporting, while Tom and Spurada left with Phyllis, a member of the exchange team, to handle the day’s ’exchange.’

For a time, only those regularly sitting quietly and serving as background, Yizou, also an intern hence not attending all events, the Sun Saint Son, reportedly delegating most tasks to subordinates’, Griffin Princess very open schedule, and the duo Motan and Yu Chen were left.

"Although Black told me about your military talents early on, Black Vatican Priest, but since Captain Foster personally invited you to participate, it seems I misjudged before."

Elisa, never letting the scene cool, scooted her chair close to Black’s, smilingly winked at Motan, "I’ve heard, every edition of the Warfire League during the exchange event invites only outstanding individuals, with this in mind...Black Vatican Priest, you’re quite low-key."

Yizou proudly raised her ample but incomparable chest compared to the other two at the table, loudly said, "Senior is the best."

"Ahem!"

Motan choked, while receiving Yu Chen’s back-patting service, bitterly shook his head at the Female Knight, "Don’t underestimate the world’s heroes."

"Though I think the Jilette Knight’s a bit exaggerated, but Brother Black, you’re indeed awesome, however..."

Being rudely pulled into a hug by Elisa, Black blushed slightly, curiously asked, "Brother Black, why did you agree to Captain Foster so readily? After all...uh...umm, nothing."

Although he stopped halfway and was vague, clearly meant ’You dodged Sumer’s massive merit, why not avoid the attention-seeking Warfire League?’

"I want to ask too."

Yu Chen raised her little hand, playfully stuck out her tongue, "But feel free not to~"

"Oh, It’s nothing bad talking about, one, our sect got me the place for (with you) vacation, I can’t ignore it, secondly..."

Motan lowered his gaze, gently scratched his nose, murmured from his heart—

"I want to show off too."
